│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │

│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │
│ tools for use by distributors (BBSes, shareware disk vendors, │
│ etc.), and the editor used by author/publishers to produce these │
│ records. These tools are either free or very-low cost shareware. │

===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
BOOKLETS is designed to create PC booklet sized documents from full page
text files on Laser Printers which emulate the Hewlett- Packard LaserJet
series. It prints four pages of the text file on one sheet of paper.
The pages are printed "two thirds size" on the right and left halves of
both sides of a sheet of paper turned sideways (Landscape orientation.)
It supports all the standard sizes of paper (A4, LETTER, LEGAL, and
EXECUTIVE)
BOOKLETS will perform transformation on basic LaserJet formatting
commands. This means that you can use your word processor to print a
formatted document to a file and use BOOKLETS to print that file in
booklet form. For this to be successful, you must have fonts loaded in
your printer for the sizes BOOKLETS will use. These can be from a font
cartridge or may be soft fonts which you have loaded ahead of running
BOOKLETS. BOOKLETS does not create or load any fonts. You will need
fonts which are approximately two thirds the point size of the fonts you
use in your document.
The BOOKLETS Document has been formatted for LaserJet printers so it is
not easy to read on a computer screen. You can print a full sized
version of this document by typing the following command line:
COPY /B BOOKLETS.PCL PRN:
Booklet can also print this file in a nice PC booklet form. There is
context sensitive help, so you may not need the document to get
started. Use the TAB key to move from selection to selection and
press F1 for help. Press ESC to get rid of the registration screen.
BOOKLETS is distributed as shareware.
Shareware is commercial software distributed in an unconventional
manner. Shareware isn't free. If you use it regularly, the authors
expect compensation. Shareware allows you to evaluate the product
before you purchase it. If you use this product, you are obliged to
register it.
Copies of BOOKLETS may be freely distributed in its Zip file form
(BOOKLS.ZIP.) No fee, charge or other compensation may be accepted for
the distribution of BOOKLETS. Except, Public Domain Disk Vendors and
BBS(s) may charge a nominal fee for distribution of the program. Such
charges must clearly be labelled distribution charges and the recipient
of BOOKLETS must be informed that the distribution fee does not relieve
the payment of the registration fee for BOOKLETS.
The BOOKLETS program files consist of:
BOOKLETS.EXE The BOOKLETS program
BOOKLETS.PCL The BOOKLETS document
REGISTER.FRM The BOOKLETS registration form
You may register your copy of BOOKLETS directly with Sympathetic
Software by sending a completed copy of the enclosed order form. You

Shareware Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the
shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a
shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member

resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP
Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442-9427 or send a
Compuserve message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
